What naming Blanc PSG boss means

With Sky Sports News confirming Carlo Ancelotti as the new Real Madrid coach, via their twitter account, and also confirming Laurent Blanc as Paris Saint-Germain's new man in charge, the door is now open for a raft of changes.

PSG have the financial clout to buy almost whomsoever they choose, and Real can put Arsenal and Juventus out of their misery by deciding who gets the services of the much talked about Gonzalo Higuain.

Blanc steps into the position having spent time as the France nation team manager guiding them to the quarter finals, losing out to Spain in Eruo 2112, for which there can be no disgrace found, also drawing with England 1-1 in the group stages.

He replaces Ancelotti at PSG, who takes on the Madrid place vacated by José Mourinho, Both managers can be expected to be active in the transfer market, with PSG linked to David Luiz and Real Madrid seemingly poised to receive bids for Cristiano Ronaldo, while executing one themselves for Gareth Bale.
